knocked over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the commotion, Jiujin rushed out, overcome with excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sister Wei’er, how come you’re here?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the dark night, Jiujin’s expression was enveloped in the shadows, not clearly visible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, the excitement and surprise in his voice were apparent, tinged with a dash of confusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cai Wei said, “I have to go into town tomorrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is Jiujin’s cart available?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Absolutely, it’s no problem at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ve got nothing planned for tomorrow, so I can take you there.” Jiujin eagerly accepted, so delighted he felt like jumping in place.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Goodness, Wei’er, what are you doing here?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Come inside where it’s warm!” Aunt Zhou rushed out with a sheepskin jacket, draping it over Jiujin and scolded, “Wei’er, look at your Brother Jiujin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he heard you were here, he ran out without even putting on his jacket.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What if he catches a cold?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiujin grinned sheepishly and mumbled, “Me, a big man, getting all dainty?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cai Wei quickly said, “Aunt Zhou is right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brother Jiujin, go back inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I don’t have any pressing matters, so I will be leaving now.” She stepped forward and handed over the meat she was carrying.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I bought some meat at the market today.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s for Eldest Uncle Zhou to enjoy with his drink.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’m grateful for his and Jiujin’s help this morning.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Aunt Zhou could say a word, Jiujin started waving his hands frantically, struggling to articulate, “No need, no need.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sister Wei’er, please don’t stand on ceremony with me…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aunt Zhou was quick to refuse as well, “Wei’er, what are you doing this for?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Your family is struggling, take it back and save it for yourself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We have meat at home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiujin’s shot wild chickens aren’t even finished yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Take it back…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Aunt Zhou has meat at home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You can use these to make oil instead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Regardless, it’s a small token of my mom’s gratitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just don’t find it too bothersome.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Politely persisting, Cai Wei tucked the straw rope holding the pork into Aunty Zhou’s hand, took Wu’er by the hand, and left…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aunt Zhou watched Cai Wei leaving, then turned to look at Jiujin, who was still standing there dumbfounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She walked up, gave him a playful punch, and laughed, “She’s already gone, why are you still standing out here like a fool?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Better get back inside before you freeze.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiujin rubbed his head, smiled sheepishly and said, “Mom, Wei’er asked me to accompany her to town tomorrow, hehe…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cai Wei led Wu’er by hand, walking unhurriedly on their way home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Mu’s and the Zhou’s houses were not far apart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, the snowstorm had stopped, and a round, bright moon like a jade plate hung in the night sky, casting its cold light on all living beings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cai Wei gazed up at the moon, feeling a wave of melancholy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She wondered if the moon here and the moon in her hometown were the same.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If so, she still had a tiny connection with her home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s as if she’s not completely isolated here!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Elder sister, listen!” Wu’er suddenly spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Cai Wei was slightly surprised, and as she snapped back to reality, a harsh scolding voice was carried over by the night wind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t very loud, but it was quite clear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You good-for-nothing whore, the fortune of our Mu family will sooner or later be ruined by you…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No good, it’s Grandma!” Wu’er squeezed Cai Wei’s hand a bit tighter and said loudly, “Elder sister, we must hurry home.” Saying this, he took Cai Wei’s hand and broke into a run.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The sibling ran urgently, and in a few strides, they were back home.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as they stepped in, Cai Wei got a fright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the edge of the Kang, the entire family of her elder uncle sat in a row, their faces unfriendly and glaring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grandma Mu Bai with her legs crossed, sat on top of the Kang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her already elongated face became even longer, about two and a half feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Grandpa Mu Liankui silently smoked his pipe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a while, he pulled out his pipe from his mouth, knocked it on the edge of the Kang, creating a series of loud ‘clink’s.\u003C\u002Fp>",747,"2026-06-03T13:14:27.010Z","2026-06-03T13:14:31.113Z",1,"novelbin.me","9b7c58555aabdb39a431f92f6acd89f877dab30932785c3b2b180122c73cc8e5","transmigration-from-farmer-to-empress-chapter-23","transmigration-from-farmer-to-empress-chapter-21",2136,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ftransmigration-from-farmer-to-empress-cover.jpg"]
